They haven&#39;t gone as far as phrasing the question &#39;you don&#39;t was a rapist to get away with it do you?&#39;, but the typeface leads towards the &quot;right thing to do&quot;.<br />I&#39;m writing a paper on rape-revenge at the moment on this topic. The rape-revenge set-up does a great deal of elaborate work and uses an emotively charged subject to not only justify but to encourage audiences to support murder. I&#39;m the first to cheer on rapists being castrated, tortured and killed when watching these films, but it is disturbing that we are encouraged not to question the fact that we are rallying for pre-meditated, cold-blooded homicide. Kill the Rapist takes the usual logic a step further by asking us to move from advocating what amounts to publically displayed capital punishment to actively voting for slaughter. No matter how the vote swings, morally speaking this is a zero-sum game.Steve Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16021775015678569087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429578353513152245.post-10558363356247530552013-12-18T05:55:43.940-08:002013-12-18T05:55:43.940-08:00I meant to add: It is sometimes also the sign of a...I meant to add: It is sometimes also the sign of a weak story.

Readers could call in and vote on whether or not the character should die. In these types of polls, voters usually vote for death. It is an interesting gimmick, but as a writer of fiction the thought of letting an audience decide where a story goes just bothers me in so many ways.Doug Brunellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557590754803213897noreply@blogger.com
